Abstract
An adhesive label printer has a thermal activation device that thermally activates a thermally active adhesive layer of a thermally active adhesive sheet. The thermally active sheet has a recording surface formed on one side of a sheet-like base and the thermally active layer formed on the other side thereof. A recording device records information on the recording surface of the thermally active adhesive sheet. A platen roller conveys the thermally active adhesive sheet and has a roller portion made of least a fluorine atom containing rubber material.
Claims24
A thermal activation device comprising:
- thermal activation means for thermally activating a thermally active adhesive layer of a thermally active adhesive sheet, the thermally active adhesive sheet having a recording surface formed on one side of a sheet-like base and the thermally active adhesive layer formed on the other side thereof;
- and
- a platen roller that conveys the thermally active adhesive sheet and that is disposed in a state in which the platen roller is brought into pressure contact with the thermal activation means, the platen roller having a roller portion made of at least a fluorine atom containing rubber material.
An adhesive label printer that records information on a recording surface of a thermally active adhesive sheet formed on one side of a sheet-like base and that thermally activates a thermally active adhesive layer of the thermally active adhesive sheet formed on another side of the sheet-like base to thereby produce an adhesive label, the adhesive label printer comprising:
- recording means for the recording information on the recording surface of the thermally active adhesive sheet;
- thermal activation means for thermally activating the thermally adhesive layer of the thermally active adhesive sheet;
- and
- a platen roller that conveys the thermally active adhesive sheet, the platen roller having a roller portion made of at least a fluorine atom containing rubber material.
